I absolutely love mine. Great for self-oscillating & gives a real nice dirty tone when you sweep the delay time back when oscillating. Works very well in my guitar rig, with a EHX Holy Grail behind it. Wouldn't want to miss it!
Good Points: Metal casing, great oscillation, connections from the top. Dirty sound!
Bad Points: Knobs aren't so great, hard to find.

Analog delay. Knobs for delay time, repeat and delay level. There is probably less than 400ms of delay, which is fairly standard with analog delay stompboxes. Turning the delay knob gives a 'time-stretching' sort of effect, which is good. With the repeat knob all the way up, it will break into a feedback loop, and gets progressively louder. This is a great effect (although i'm sure it wasn't designed to do this), but i'm sure it would damage speakers. There is a trimpot accesible from the battery compartment that controls the regeneration, so adjusting that will remove the cascading volume problem. This pedal would be great for pedal modifiers, as there are 4 trimpots inside, and having access to the regen trimpot on the outside of the case would be great to avoid blowing amps/speakers.
Good Points: *good for modifying *cool time stretch effect, digital delays don't do this as well, if at all *great cascading volume effect (unless you blow your speakers)
Bad Points: *doesn't work very well with lots of pedals around it, digital delays are much better for feedback loops *cheap construction, crappy knobs *analog, so it's getting expensive
